Texas Tech University Top Questions

The worst thing about my school would be the dorm life. My dorm isn't the nicest place to live but the staff does their best to accommodate everyone's needs.

I really dont have a bad thing to say about texas tech but if i did it would be the food

They claim to give all these scholarships out equally to those that need them. They give out few and to the same people who dont really need them.

There are approximately 42,000 students at my school, which means the campus and class sizes are quite large. This makes navigating between classes difficult, as well as dealing with large lecture classes. However, such a large and diverse population also brings about many opportunities to network - a favorable advantage not offered at smaller institutions.

The campus is very seperated. It takes a long time to get from class to class. The weather is horrible so having to walk really far during a snow storm can cause students to not attend class that day.

Class size. Some classes were way too large to learn effectively. Large lecture halls do not encourage asking questions or expressing opinions.

The worst thing about my university would have to be their focus on growth. Texas Tech is a major institution and recently passed its previous record for students in attendance. Yet, instead of directly focusing on the student body, the administration is vigorously working to raise its status and join the prestigious tier one grouping. While this is an excellent goal for the school, one should not try and obtain such recognition for the sake of prestige. I feel that the greatest fault of the administration is that students have become a close second.

The worst thing about this school would be that it's rather difficult to be involved in anything unless you're in a sorority or fraternity, or if you don't have a large amount of free time. There is not a wide range of clubs or activities, and for those that are more diverse, it is difficult to get involved in them, due to lack of information on the school or organization's website. I would advise new students to try to get involved in activities as soon as possible, because it's harder the longer you wait.

I really love Texas Tech but sometimes I wish it was smaller and a little more personable. Also, in some classes you will have a foreign professer. This can make things really difficult if you can not understand them clearly.

I love everything about Texas Tech University! The only thing i wish they would work on are the dorms. They are nice but could use some updates to make living there a little bit eaiser.

The worst thing about my school I would have to say would be the lack of healthy food choices. As a college student, I understand the need for fast food, but as a health major I find the need for healthy food to be a greater one. As a society, we cannot start making smart food choices until we are presented with the opportunity to do so.

The food on campus does not cater to a wide range of diets (i.e. gluten-free or vegetariansim). Also, there are not options for vegetables at the , majority of the places to eat. And, for as long as you live on campus you have to have a dining plan, even if you live in an on campus apartment.

nothing. Profesors want student to succed. be focus on your work but also have fun.

The english program at my school is my least favorite part of the school because the assignments are submitted online before we show up to the next class. Also our assignments are not graded by our professors but are graded by anyone in the english department. This makes it difficult to know what our grader is looking for and this makes it difficult to make an A on an assignment.

The worst thing about Texas Tech University would have to be the distance. At times I wish I could be with my family but, unfortunately they are in Dallas and that is six hours away. Although, the experience in having to depend upon yourself is a unique opportunity to mature as a person.

Being that I am a frehman here on campus, I don not consider any negetive things at Texas Tech University. Texas Tech has always tried to ensure that they provide the studnts with every opportunty to succeed.

I do not consider my school to be wrong at all. I love my school. Texas Tech University has a beautiful campus, a variety of interesting classes, and wonderful teachers.

The lighting at night is defiantly the worst. part of my school. You can go minutes walking in what seems to be complete darkness. Coming from someone who has taken a night class on Campus, it feels unsafe on the desolate edges of campus,. To top it off there isn't a running bus system that comes frequent enough for anybody to want to use.

Although Texas Tech does a great job of helping students out to meet their individual needs and issues; most of the time it takes quite sometime to receive a response and I have had to make several attempts in order to get a response or the right help I needed.

The only thing that slightly annoys me is the parking situation. It is a VERY small problem and not even a problem at that. I think this school is excellent.
